Billy Allender is a young ringer in outback Australia, riding bucking horses, breaking horses others could not handle, and throwing wild cattle. He stands up for his mates without hesitation or thoughts for the consequences. His boss is an Indigenous stockman and Billy falls in love with his daughter Matilda but is then devastated by a series of incidents that change the pathway of his life.This is an enthralling story written by someone who has lived and worked in the outback. It is about life on the stations with sheep and cattle. It is also about the unique culture that has evolved within these people, both Indigenous and Caucasian, who live and work in this harsh environment and how it differs so markedly from urban society.
